At Sheridonna Designs, fashion is more than style, it’s a movement. This wisdom led to the founding of the Unity Fashion Institute Foundation, Inc. (UFIF), a nonprofit organization dedicated to using fashion as a tool for transformation. Rooted in our commitment to creativity, education, and social impact, UFIF empowers aspiring fashion designers and supports underserved communities both locally and globally.
The Unity Fashion Institute Foundation, Inc. (UFIF) is a global 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization committed to supporting aspiring and emerging designers by providing essential resources, access, and opportunities that remove barriers to success within the fashion industry.
